BigSexxy 2 Posted August 15, 2011 its so exciting to read everyone's progress. I'm two weeks in and I am down almost 2 sizes, my 24's and 22's are nice and roomy. I need to dig in some old clothes for some 20's and see what they are fitting like. 2 Texarkolina and BabyHuey reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KitKatKate 1 Posted August 31, 2011 What an exciting milestone! Seriously amazing. I can't wait to get to that point. I will be so excited! Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buckeye Girl 8 Posted August 31, 2011 Congrats! That is amazing, I love reading success stories, my eyes tear up with JOY for you!!! My surgery is Sept. 10th. I am currently a size 22 and I haven't been a size 12 in over 20 years, I just can't imagine myself below a size 16. I hope I get smaller than that but right now it just seems impossible.

Deakay 15 Posted August 31, 2011 I keep hoping I will drop sizes faster......but so far no go. I DID buy a pair of trousers in the regular sizes, and they were a 16 too So I guess from a 18-20 W to a 16 regular is progress but I so want to try the 14's! I still wear my 18w's to work every day, they are pulled up to under my boobs and I'm walking on the bottoms, but since they are mostly knit you don't notice the droopy crotch/butt too much....lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjs6172 2 Posted September 2, 2011 Congrats!! I can't wait to be there with you I just tried on a pair of size 18 jeans and they button, but are just a litle tight yet! So exciting to move down from a 24 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ready2BHealthier 0 Posted September 19, 2011 I've been having some fun too - not buying too much as I'm still losing, but it was fun to go into Old Navy and have a bunch of choices of what to buy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdithM 0 Posted October 16, 2011 yesterday I went to the store and I wear a size 12. I'm down 119 lbs. I was so excited going from 24 to 12. My daughter laughed at me cuz I was so excited. Just thought I would share.:biggrin0: Hi, I know how you feel!!! I am so happy for you. Congrats!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k__ 3 Posted October 16, 2011 I can only dream about being where you are now! I figure I'm maybe 2-3 months away, IF all goes well. I look forward to fitting into those sizes, but I'm not a fan of shopping. So instead of finding something decent from a few possible choices, I have a feeling I'll be overwhelmed with deciding among so many new options. I seriously get nervous when I think about THAT flip side, but it won't slow me down on this journey any, at least! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gloeygirl 0 Posted October 17, 2011 Shopping is a lot more fun now than it was 100 pounds ago. I still find myself looking at Lane Bryant clothes & bras. I can now fit into Victoria Secret, but have a hard time letting go of Lane Bryant...weird! Have fun creating your new wardrobe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking Ahead 239 Posted May 21, 2012 Do you have any before and after pics? I wear a 24/26 and want to stop at a size 10/12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MegInNOLA 531 Posted May 21, 2012 Hey Looking Ahead--I was a tight 24/26/28 (depending on the item of clothing) and am now in a 10/12/14 (again depending on the clothing--LOL). You can check out my profile for before/after pics. That's me at my -100 pounds mark, so I'm down around 20 pounds more from that pic. It makes a BIG difference. Of course I got to replace my entire closet, which was SO MUCH FUN! 1 Looking Ahead reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
